The console status messages do not indicate who is doing the downloading
(plug-in or core) or why. It's definitely not a something a new user is
expecting.

1. Is there way to make that not happen?
2. Are the developers addressing this? Or do they consider this a user
friendly feature?

If Maven ships with plug-ins, shouldn't it include the plug-ins dependencies
in it's local repo as part of the stock install? The reason I'm asking is
that I want to start using Maven (instead of Ant) in my java training
workshops. And I like to start with a basic archive (maven-1.0-beta-9.zip)
and have the students install it and run it. But, I can't have that long
download on 12 PC all at the same time in the middle of class. Also, I like
to include all of the workshop's software on a CD ROM for those students
that don't have Internet Access at home.

Thanks.
